Will you be in or at the office?
The preposition “in” in “I am in the office” implies that the office is a room and you are inside that room. The word “at”, on the other hand, conveys the general idea of the location of one's office and is often interchangeable with “at work”. To sum it up: I am in my/the office.
"In work" means I have a job. I might not be there currently, but I have employment. "At work" means I am currently doing my job, or at least on the premises of my job. So if we say: he is bored at work.
You can use either, there are subtle differences, depending where you are. If you are close to, or in the same building I would say “ are you still in the office”. If I was at home and you were at work I would use “at the office”.
“At” is used when you are at the top, bottom or end of something; at a specific address; at a general location; and at a point. “In” is used in a space, small vehicle, water, neighborhood, city and country.
Not really, 'in school' is perhaps more common American English while 'at school' is more British but both are equally 'correct'. Similarly an American would probably say 'in college' while a Brit would say 'at university'.
“At home” is right. “Home” is not a specific place; it varies from person to person. “In” is used for specific places that don't change, like “I am in the Kroger on the corner.” Since your home is not everyone's home, it would be “At home.” Hope it helped!
You can work "at" or "for" a company. You work "in" a sector or profession.
I'm at work - I'm at my place of work, or, less formally, I'm occupied doing something rather serious. I'm in work - I've got a job; I'm not unemployed. As opposed to "I'm out of work now" or "I'm out of a job now" I think that works.
I'd say "to work" could include both - on the way and while working, while "at work" suggests wearing it only while actually working.
Both are correct, depending on your meaning. "At" refers to a place, so if you mean you will be working at the office instead of working at your home, then use "at." But if you mean you will be working in the office instead of working in the canteen downstairs, then use "in" to indicate the room you will be inside.

We use at when we refer to an address: The restaurant used to be at number 72 Henry Street. We use at the to refer to public places where we get treatments, such as a dentist's or doctor's surgery, hairdresser's or spa: While Liz was at the dentist, I went shopping.
If a specific house has a name (think Bronte sisters) then you might live AT the house (I lived at Greyoaks all my life) but if it's not a single family dwelling (say it's a hotel, or an apartment building) then it's IN.
For the most specific times, and for holidays without the word “day,” we use at. That means you will hear, “Meet me at midnight,” or “The flowers are in bloom at Easter time.” When English speakers refer to a place, we use in for the largest or most general places.
Originally Answered: How can I say, “Are you coming to office today?” in a formal way that I can ask to my boss? This is actually very easy. Simply say, “I have several things I'd like to discuss with you, do you know when you will arrive at the office so I can be ready for you?
A common error is to confuse into, spelled as one word, with the two words in to. When deciding which is right for your sentence, remember that into is a preposition that shows what something is within or inside. As separate words, in and to sometimes simply wind up next to each other.
Hi chongkai Lu 😊. If you aren't limited, then follow Jess STJ's advice, and write "Out of Office" or "Out of the Office."

"In person" and "in-person" are both correct, as long as the first phrase is used as an adverb and the second phrase is used as an adjective. Remember that an adverb modifies a verb, adding enhancing information such as how or when.
